Happy World Puppetry Day!

Every year on 21st March it’s International World Puppetry Day! I hope you’re all doing something very puppet-y. As is the custom on WPD, UNIMA International asks one well-known theatre worker to write a message to the puppet community. It’s usually uplifting, historical, or spoken from a particular viewpoint or culture.

This year’s message is written by Prof. Henryk Jurkowski, author of History of European Puppetry: The Twentieth Century. You can read the message in full at UNIMA Australia. This is also the 8th anniversary of the World Puppet Day!
